IF YOU HATE SOMEONE

Chapter 2

A week passed like yesterday and I thrived out of everything somehow,thanks to Neha.Everyone deserves a best friend like her.

Waiting for my train to arrive,I looked my right to see mom and dad laughing while talking something and Deepthi,my sister typing on her phone.Something nudged my elbow and it was Neha.

"See that's the people you should prioritize in your life,you get me?" She smiled

I couldn't help but hugged her tight as she hugged me back.

"I will miss you" I said before pouting

"I'll miss you too dear and we can meet on holidays na?"

"Of course,I hope two years will pass soon"

"That's my girl"She gave me a final hug as the train came.I hugged my family and looks at the board 'Kerala to Delhi' and gets in the train,saying goodbye.

I never thought I would ever go to NCR (National capital Region).

Two days later

Finding my room in hostel with a whole luggage was a big task but I succeeded somehow.Some people stared at me while I was coming,but I don't mind when I already expected that.

"Hey" A small voice startled me

I turned to see a girl with almost same height as mine which is 5'2 but with straight hair.

"Hello" I replied

"You must be my roommate,my name is Priya" She smiled

She's really beautiful.

"Hi Priya,I'm Dhwani"

"Oh nice name,Where are you from?"

"I'm from Kerala"

"Omg,really! It's one of my dream place to visit yaar" She smiled hugely

"Haha you can come with me,what about you?"

"I'm from Haryana,Which department are you?" She asked

"Great...I'm Msc Physics"

"I'm chemistry"

"That's cool"

Priya seems to be a nice girl.She talks with me like a normal person despite the others.We clicked soon and I told her about my family,Neha and many more.Likewise she told me the same.She have a love interest since last year of her college,and he came to be in dtu too this year.I don't know if it was 'accidental' or not and I didn't asked much about that either.
She reminds me of Neha,but a calmer version.

The stares we got during mess was uncountable.Haven't these people seen any tanned people?We didn't mind at all.If Neha was instead of me,she would have thrown the curry on their faces.
That thought made me laugh a little.

I already started to miss home.

'So how's everything going' Neha's text popped up on my phone

'Not bad so far' I replied

'Dw you'll be fine,did you get friends?'

'Yeah my roommate,Priya'

'Good.I hope she's nice or else.. '

'Haha she's nice but some people are just opposite here'

'Hmm I know what you're talking about but dw there are still some people without common sense even if it is a highly developed city,and it's not our problem na?'

'Absolutely but'

'No buts and it's bro chill out or make them suffer verbally'

I laughed by that text
